The inconveniences that daily occur, from the Colonies not adhering to some certain & regular mode of appointing their Agents, are many & great & it would be very satisfactory, and prevent many difficulties that occur in the transaction of public Business, if all the Colonies would conform to that rule which has been prescribed by the Crown, of appointing their Agents by Act of the Legislature, which, as it originated in the House of Assembly, it follows of course that the name of the Person must be inserted by them, altho' the other two Branches of the Legislature have each respectively a negative upon the Bills.
